Amway has some very interesting business practices..... Before extolling their 'virtues', you may want to consider that.

I think there should be a general rule for posts like these, if you did not use it and will be negative about it, don't post. Sounds simple, no? All she was doing was telling the OP her experience with it. What you think/feel about diet pills or supplements is yours to think/feel, but don't attack people for having tried them and write things off as a scam if you clearly have not used the product in question. Not all products will work the same for all people. That was just one person's experience. If by only eating healthy and working out has worked for you, fantastic. Some people just need an extra kick to get the weight loss process going and aren't as lucky as you.

Personally, I've used Alli and never once had a single bad side effect other people have had. I tired losing weight but I always seemed to gain it back. I needed something extra to get the ball rolling and so I decided to try Alli. To me, it is a great product. To someone else that has had anal leakage, not so much. I've lost 35lbs using it. I haven't used it for 6months now and probably won't, unless I hit a plateau I can't break out of. My reason for not continuing it for the past 6mos is price.

And even if this Neutrilite doesn't drastically make you lose weight, like some others have mentioned, it at least stopped them from gaining weight from eating a carb heavy meal. That is still a success to me.

I boil them to make a tea... cool it, then stand on my head and with the help of a funnel, I pour it directly in to my rectum. This helped me block 100,000 calories! Magic!

Well hell. I haven't been letting my tea cool before pouring in my rectum. No wonder I'm not losing.

Just the name, the concept of blocking carbs is ludicrous. Let me be clear - I am not knocking OP but I feel truly sorry for so many people who can't accept the FACT you simply cannot eat garbage and get healthy (loss weight) without exercise, commitment, willpower and moderation.

Diet pills are like religion. People swear by them, others fight about but they will be around forever. Companies will always take the money of the naive. However, until you commit to real change like hundreds, maybe thousands, on MFP, you will not achieve lasting health or weight loss.

haha this is why america has an obesity epidemic.

you set out for quick fixes that promise results when youre too lazy to put in the hard work and effort it takes to get REAL results.

i dont need a *magic pill* to help me lose weight and i laugh at those of you who think you do. my body is earned through HARD WORK, A CLEAN DIET AND 100% DEDICATION.

But last night the forum taught me that mayo caused the obesity epidemic...hmmmm...

Agreed.

'Diet pills and surgery can help with weight loss — when combined with a healthy diet and physical activity. But diet pills aren't for everyone. Neither is surgery. In fact, many doctors consider them only if you have weight-related health problems.

If you're in that group, you and your doctor need to carefully evaluate the potential benefits of diet pills or surgery and weigh them against the possible long-term risks. Your doctor will also counsel you about the lifestyle changes you'll need to make to be successful over the long term.'

Disagree completely.

The fitness and diet industry is built on lies and false promises. I don't need to have taken *insert supplement* to have pretty good idea of of it's likely to work or not. Just look at the ingredients and research them.

It's like the whole "we should encourage everyone" attitude, some people are doing things that really shouldn't be encouraged. If someone posts saying they are going on a 2 week fast where they eat nothing but lemons to cleanse themselves then that shouldn't be encouraged.

I will say again supplement companies lie to you!!!! it sad to see many people on here turn to pills and whatever when they haven't got the basics right.

I don't see the any benefit on having multiple threads tellin people to buy cla by the truckload.

If by only eating healthy and working out has worked for you, fantastic. Some people just need an extra kick to get the weight loss process going and aren't as lucky as you.

Luck doesnt come into it, unless you want to use it as an excuse.


The question you should ask yourself when you look at any supplement is... Are bodybuilders, fitness models and athletes, the people who's careera depend on looking and performing their best using them, if not it's probably garbage.

Why are you necroing 2 year old threads -_-

Look at the evidence https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1796956/

The initial question was do they work. They do. There are opinions on whether they are a good idea. Separate issue.

International Journal of Medical Sciences.

Aims: The present research study examines a dietary supplement containing 445 mg of Phaseolus vulgaris extract derived from the white kidney bean, previously shown to inhibit the activity of the digestive enzyme alpha amylase, on body composition of overweight human subjects.

Methods: A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study was conducted on 60 pre-selected, slightly overweight volunteers, whose weight had been essentially stable for at least six months. The volunteers were divided into two groups, homogeneous for age, gender, and body weight. The test product containing Phaseolus vulgaris extract and the placebo were taken one tablet per day for 30 consecutive days before a main meal rich in carbohydrates. Each subject's body weight, fat and non-fat mass, skin fold thickness, and waist/hip/thigh circumferences were measured.

Results: After 30 days, subjects receiving Phaseolus vulgaris extract with a carbohydrate-rich, 2000- to 2200-calorie diet had significantly (p<0.001) greater reduction of body weight, BMI, fat mass, adipose tissue thickness, and waist,/hip/ thigh circumferences while maintaining lean body mass compared to subjects receiving placebo.

Conclusion: The results indicate that Phaseolus vulgaris extract produces significant decrements in body weight and suggest decrements in fat mass in the face of maintained lean body mass.
